Thermodynamics of the spin transition in [FexZn1−x(2-pic)3]Cl2 · EtOH
1992
Abstract With a new type of calorimeter we reinvestigated the specific heat Cp of the mixed crystals [FexZni1−x(2-pic)3]Cl2 · EtOH in the temperature range from 15 to 300 K. On the basis of a phenomenological thermodynamic model the anomaly in the Cp(T) curve of the mixed crystal (x = 0.73) can be quantitatively described as a result of the spin transition (1A1(low spin, LS) → 5T2(high spin, HS)). The parameters of the Gibbs free energy were independently derived from the temperature dependence of the HS fraction γ in [FexZn1−x(2-pic)3]Cl2 · EtOH. The pure iron complex (x = 1) exhibits a two-step spin transition. In the temperature range between the two steps the entropy obtained from the C…
Synthesis, Crystal Structure, and Properties of Multicomponent Bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene Charge-Transfer Salts of the [Mo3S7Br6]2- Cluster
2005
A new family of bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene (ET) radical salts has been prepared in the presence of a triangular molybdenum sulfide cluster of formula [Mo 3 S 7 Br 6 ] 2 - , which contains highly electrophilic axialsulfur atoms. A systematic change in the experimental conditions yields five different salts, namely (ETA)2(ET B )[Mo 3 S 7 Br 6 ] 2 . CH 2 Br 2 (1), (ETA)(ET B )Mo 3 S 7 Br 6 ].1.1CH 2 Br 2 (2), (ETA)(ETB)(ET C ){[Mo 3 S 7 Br 6 ]Br}.0.5C 2 H 4 Cl 2 (3), (ET)((n-Bu 4 )N)-[Mo 3 S 7 Br 6 ] (4), and (ET)(Ph4P)[Mo 3 S 7 Br 6 ].0.5CH 3 CN (5), where the ET subscript denotes crystallographically independent molecules. The five compounds have been structurally characterized, a…
Synthesis and low-frequency vibrational spectra of some halo- and pseudohalo-diphenylantimonates(V)
1976
Abstract The syntheses of diphenylantimonates(V) of the type M(I) [PH 2 XbX 4 ] (M(I) = PH 4 As; X = F, Cl, Br, N 3 , NCS; X 4 = Cl 3 Br, Cl 3 N 3 ) are described. Far-Ir spectra of these compounds and of previously synthesized M(I) [Ph 2 SbCl 3 X] species (M(I) = Me 4 N; X = Cl, Br, N 3 ; M(I) = Ph 4 As; X = NCS) are reported. Raman spectra of tetrafluoro and tetrachloro salts are also given. Vibrational data are interpreted in terms of the presence of solid of trans -Ph 2 SbX 4 - species and assignments of skeletal modes are suggested.
Organoelement derivatives of steroids: synthesis and structural characterization of diorganotin chloride adducts of hormones
1986
Abstract Ten new diorganotin dichloride adducts of hormones of the type R 2 SnCl 2 ·2L [where R = Me, Et, n-Bu, Oct and Ph; L = 4-androsten-17s-ol-3-one ( A ); 5-androsten-3s-ol-17-one ( B ); 4-androsten-17α- methyl-17s-ol-3-one ( C ) and 3,17-dihydroxy-5- pregnene-20-one ( D )] have been prepared and characterized at 297 K and 223 K. Spectroscopic measurements (IR; Raman; 1 H, 13 C, 119 Sn NMR) suggest the dissociation or fast ligand exchange in solution at 297 K. Hexa-coordinated adducts with bonding through carbonyl oxygen and trans -R groups in octahedral geometry are formulated at 223 K.
Calculation of shear influences on the phase separation of polymer blends exhibiting upper critical solution temperatures
1994
Calculations were performed on the basis of a generalized Gibbs energy of mixing G γ, which is the sum of the Gibbs energy of mixing of the stagnant system and E s, the energy stored in the system during stationary flow. With increasing shear rate γ, the demixing temperatures shift to lower values (shear-induced mixing; diminution of the heterogeneous area), then to higher values (shear-induced demixing), and finally to lower values again before the effects fade out. The details of the rather complex phase diagrams resulting for a given shear rate are primarily determined by a band in the T/χ plane (χ = mole fraction) within which (∂2 E s/∂χ2) T UCST where they submerge. Bound to a suitable…
Vibrational analysis of the electronic spectrum of ethylene based onab initio SCF-CI calculations
1972
Ab initio calculations for CH2 twisting and CC stretching vibrational wavefunctions and energy levels are reported for various electronic states of ethylene C2H4. Electronic transition moments between these states are also obtained to allow a calculation of the oscillator strengths for vibrational transitions involved in various electronic band systems; from this study it is concluded that thevertical electronic energy differenceΔE e may differ significantly from the energy of the absorption maximumΔE max with which it is often equated. In particular it is found in the case of theπ→π * singlet-singlet excitation of ethylene that theΔE e value overestimates the most probable vibrational tran…
Transduction of redox Gibbs free energy into modulated electrochemical work
1988
Abstract This work supplies an electrochemical model in order to account for some oscillatory phenomena. The model can be applied both to living bodies and to electrochemical cells. We suppose that one of the products of an electrochemical reaction in solution has a high vapour pressure and study the influence of its mass transfers on its oscillations and on that of the current,induced by the former ones. Mass transfers that we consider are either that from the solution to theatmosphere above it or both that due to bubble nucleation and that from the solution to the bubbles alreadynucleated. Two different oscillation conditions are determined. One derives from the resistance due to theinter…
Static and dynamic screening effects in the electrostatic self-assembly of nano-particles.
2014
In the description of charge screening in the electrostatic self-assembly of nanoparticles (molecules) embedded into a polar solvent, the static screening effects (a contribution associated with the rapid spatial redistribution of small and highly mobile ions of a solvent) are traditionally treated phenomenologically, using the Yukawa short-range potential for describing the interaction between these particles. However, this model has a limited range of applicability being valid only for infinitely diluted systems and high salt concentrations. During a slow self-assembling process with nanoparticle formation, very dense structural elements (aggregates) are formed, in which the distances bet…
Photoinduced optical anisotropy in organic molecular films controlled by an electric field
1993
Abstract The photoinduced reorientation of dye molecules in molecular films on solid substrates has been controlled with external dc electric fields, leading to solid state structures, which are macroscopically polar, temporally stable at room temperature, and well-defined at the molecular level. A simulation based on the excitation-driven rotational diffusion of the molecules in the potential of their neighbors yielded a realistic model and indicated a collective character of the process. This shows that we are close to a quantitative comprehension of the molecular interactions within these films.
Combined theoretical and experimental analysis of processes determining cathode performance in solid oxide fuel cells
2013
Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) are under intensive investigation since the 1980's as these devices open the way for ecologically clean direct conversion of the chemical energy into electricity, avoiding the efficiency limitation by Carnot's cycle for thermochemical conversion. However, the practical development of SOFC faces a number of unresolved fundamental problems, in particular concerning the kinetics of the electrode reactions, especially oxygen reduction reaction. We review recent experimental and theoretical achievements in the current understanding of the cathode performance by exploring and comparing mostly three materials: (La,Sr)MnO3 (LSM), (La,Sr)(Co,Fe)O3 (LSCF) and (Ba,Sr)(Co,…
